Ayes: Corcoran, Hoefert, Lohrstorfer, Skowren, Wilks, Zadel Nays: None PZ 03-02 999 N. ELMHURST RD., COSTCO NEW BUSINESS An ordinance was presented for first reading, which would amend Ordinance No. 3604, passed February 4, 1986, approving a Planned Unit Development (PUD), that being Randhurst (Mall) Shopping Center. This ordinance would allow the construction of Costco, a one-story, 150,586 square foot wholesale store, in the space formerly occupied by Montgomery Ward. Additionally, its approval would grant a variation for outdoor storage/display of two automobiles on the parking lot. William Cooney, Director of Community Development, stated that representatives of Rouse Randhurst, Costco, and the Village have made much progress, and only the following items remain open for agreement: · Village staff's preference for brick pavers, while Costco prefers concrete; · Staff's recommendation for a combination of bricks; · Staff's recommendation of brick color(s). 2 AMEND ORD. 3147, HOUSING REHAB LOANS Costco representatives were present to address Board members' concerns, and it was established that the ordinance would be presented at the next regular Board meeting on April 2, 2002. An ordinance was presented for first reading to amend Ordinance No. 3147, passed October 6, 1981, which established a Housing Rehabilitation Loan Program. That ordinance stipulated that the interest-free loans administered by the Village must be repaid in 20 years, or upon sale of transfer of title. Many of the loans will be due within the next three years, and recent loan reviews by staff have revealed that many of the loan recipients are now elderly and on fixed incomes. It was also noted that many of the recipients' incomes have not increased sufficiently to allow them to repay the loans without selling or refinancing them at higher interest rates. The proposed ordinance would make all the existing and future interest-free loans payable upon sale of the home, or when refinancing moves the loan to a value ratio beyond 80% (as is currently done). Mr. Cooney addressed questions from the Board, which primarily related to the manner in which the program is currently administered. The consensus of the Board was that the ordinance should be revised to reflect the intent of the changes proposed by staff, however they asked staff to review the profiles of the participants of the program. There was an interest in requiring that individuals who no longer qualify for the pregrem pay back the loans after 20 years. Staff was asked to modify the ordinance to defer requiring repayments for two years, so that they cound adequately review this issue. A revised ordinance will be presented for second reading at the April 2, 2002 Village Board meeting. MANAGER'S REPORT OTHER BUSINESS CLOSED SESSION VILLAGE MANAGER'S REPORT Board members expressed congratulations to the Mount Prospect Library Board and staff for their recent accomplishment of getting the referendum approved, to allow for library expansion and renovation. Trustee Wilks also inquired about the Village's policy regarding home delivery of alcoholic beverages. Village Manager Michael Janonis stated that staff continues to research ways to restrict this type of business, and means of enforcement. ANY OTHER BUSINESS None. CLOSED SESSION Trustee Hoefert, seconded by Trustee Corcoran, moved to convene in Closed Session to discuss the following: 51LCS 120/2.06 (c) - Discussion of minutes lawfully closed under this Act, whether, for purposes of approval of the minutes or semi-annual review of the minutes as mandated. 3 ECONVENE ADJOURN RECONVENE The Village Board reconvened in Open Session at 9:05 p.m., with no further business being discussed.
